IMHO, that's one crazy place to be squirting!

YEEEE HAAAAAWWW

Just kidding. I'm too wimpy for that kind of stuff.

Do you REALLY think there is a boat under there? Fantastic shot!

I want to know what type of boat! That looks to be quite a ride! Way cool! Paul C.

Agreed...that looks like a far out ride...and right up MikeW's alley despite what he says (I'm sure the paddler wouldn't be bow stalling through Robin's Nest

...)

I would also like to know the boat and cut

I think there's a Cascade under there. It's a real powered up spot.

If there is a cascade in there I am truly impressed and unworthly!

To get that deep in that big of a boat would be an understatement as to that spot being "powered up"! Not to mention the skill sets required to stay trim and true through it!

Very impressive and a great pix!

A couple of Years ago I actually did once an unintentional mystery move

in the Finkenmeister, which is not exactly a low volume boat either, during a high water (16 or 17) run on the Ottawa.
We were surfing at Angels Kiss, when I surfed over a bit too far to the right, straight into the pourover behind the big rock there

. I disappeared, felt like hitting an elevator, and was gone for several seconds, long enough for my two buddies to actually ask weach other where I had gone. All I remember is that it got pretty dark and quiet down there, and then I reappeared, still upright about 30ft downstream. That was one of my coolest rides ever

You will have to try it again in your sith!

Frankly, I am a bit worried trying the same thing in the Sith. As deep as I went in the Finkenmeister, I think I might go all the way to the Bottom in the Sith , which has, after all, only a a little more than half the volume of the Finkenmeister!
